Rabbi Brewster was delighted to be asked to an international conference of religious leaders, especially when he heard it was to be held in Rotorua, New Zealand, an area famous for its volcanic and thermal features like boiling mud pools and natural hot springs. As he and his wife had not had a holiday for some time, they decided that she would join him after the conference.
The morning after he arrived, the Rabbi decided to send his wife an email, but unfortunately sent it to the wrong email address, that of the recent widow of a colleague... .
My dear, darling wife (it read)
When I got down here, I was pleased to find that we were all given the use of a computer, so Ill be able to email you every day and tell you everything thats going on. It certainly seems odd to think that youre walking round over my head in the winter cold. The heat here is amazing.
I miss you very much, but Ive been meeting some really interesting people, rabbis, priests and clergymen from every denomination you can think of. Ive even met some old friends like Morris Simmonds, and David Goldstein who send their regards.
After the English winter, it seems very hot down here, and the sulphur smell is very strong. I was talking to an Anglican Archdeacon whos been here for some years and he tells me that there are cold days, and after a while you dont notice the smell.
I miss you terribly, my darling, and as I cant come back to you, I cant wait until you come down here to be with me and we will never be parted again. I am so glad to think that it wont be long before we are together again forever.
Your ever loving husband,
